This was very nice! I was surprised my how much fun I had playing an already existing and very well defined type of game! The juicyness was definetly the winner here and I could say the same about Super Cute Slime Attack!
The leaderboard is also always a plus in game jams since it connects the community so well (Don't ask me about my score! I'm working on it)
If I were to give and adivice though I would defintly recommend for you guys to look at some design and artistic fundamentals (and I'm not talking only about illustration). There's so much creativity and style here, taking some time to learn this kinda stuff can be a little difficult or boring but it would definetly up it all by a hundred! There's no problem going for some simple ui and that's also just kinda of recommended for a jam, but I missed stuff like just having some different in theme font for the entire project or a in game score with some better contrast with the background.
